FAQs

What are Soda Crystals?

Soda Crystals are the chemical compound Sodium Carbonate Decahydrate (Na₂CO₃ · 10H₂O). Used as a powerful natural cleaning agent, these crystals are often compared to bicarbonate of soda, but they are more alkaline and effective for heavy-duty cleaning tasks.

How are Soda Crystals made?

Soda Crystals are produced through the 'Solvay' process, which involves the reaction of sodium chloride (salt) with limestone (calcium carbonate) and ammonia.

Are Soda Crystals environmentally friendly?

Soda Crystals are biodegradable and break down naturally into the environment without harmful residues. They're non-toxic and safe to use, making them far more environmentally friendly than harsh chemical cleaner alternatives.
